Description Alvaro Sanchez-Leon CLA 2011-08-31 10:52:01 EDT
The add structures within the R4E Review properties have different limitations
e.g. on Review Properties, Components, ADD

 1) There is a space which seems to be a column header which is not used and uses a big portion of the available space
 2) After clicking add for a second entry the new entry row comes fast, the user starts trying to interact with the initial row and a re-shuffle comes in a removes the selection from the user

1)  The reason why there is a table header is because it was requested to be able to change the column width manually.  Having a header is the only way to do it.  If we ever manage to tie the colunm separator with the eade of the table widget (i.e. have a full one-column table) then this will not be needed anymore and could then be removed.

2)  I will investigate and try to find a way to not reshuffle the rows when editing

Here's what was done:

1)  The table header was removed.  I was able to tie the column separator to the right edge of the table using TableColumnLayouts.  There is still a constant small space between the separator and the edge, which is annoying, but it will do for now.

2) The second problem is fixed.  Now there is no reshuffling of the table rows when editing
